Overview: Superior investment performance is the ultimate objective of mutual fund investors. However, past fund performance is no reliable indicator of future performance. Peter Lückoff investigates why fund flows and manager changes act as equilibrium mechanisms and drive the performance of both previously outperforming and previously underperforming funds back to average levels. These results have important implications for investors, investment management companies and even regulators.978-3-8349-2780-4978-3-8349-6527-1

Overview: Takes a novel approach to border studies by focusing on the disjunctions between how this is tackled in the policy and public domains.Examines wide range of international conventions, national framewoThis edited collection goes beyond the limited definition of borders as simply dividing lines across states, to uncover another, yet related, type of division: one that separates policies and institutions from public debate and contestation. .Bringing together expertise from established and emerging academics, it examines the fluid and varied borderscape across policy and the public doma

Overview: Provides creative ways to think and make strategy a compliment to the traditional, rational approaches of planning.Examines the role of sensemaking and narrative construction in times of organisationa.Collective sense making starts with individual stories. Stories influence how we construct our sense of self in relation to others and our social environment, especially within the world of work.. .The stories we tell ourselves at work, particularly during times of change, impact our relationships and the collaboration with those who are engaged in the same work activities. Stories that

Overview: Fluid dynamics is an ancient science incredibly alive today. Modern technol­ ogy and new needs require a deeper knowledge of the behavior of real fluids, and new discoveries or steps forward pose, quite often, challenging and diffi­ cult new mathematical {::oblems. In this framework, a special role is played by incompressible nonviscous (sometimes called perfect) flows. This is a mathematical model consisting essentially of an evolution equation (the Euler equation) for the velocity field of fluids. Such an equation, which is nothing other than the Newton laws plus some additional st

Overview: Covers all areas of mobile information systems, from special hardware devices to software applications.Develops a general reference model for the overall architecture, thus helps validating concrete i.Mobile devices allow users to access information resources and services over many different distribution channels – anywhere, anytime, anyhow. Technical and usage characteristics of mobile systems are highly variable with respect to user capabilities and context characteristics, therefore an immense level of flexibility is required....Barbara Pernici - with contributions by the research

Overview: This book includes all papers presented at the International Symposium on Monitoring Behavior and Supervisory Control held at Berchtesgaden, Federal Republic of Germany, March 8-12, 1976. The Symposium was sponsored by the Scientific Affairs Division of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Brussels, and the government of the Federal Republic of Germany, Bonn. We believe the book constitutes an important and timely status report on monitoring behavior and supervisory control by human operators of complex man-machine systems in which the computer is sharing key functions with the ma
